Rva circular Issued by the Texas Brew-
era' association snd sent out to . all U
retail liquor dealer ef th State a strong
appeal Is made for the suppression ot the
dive snd for th eonduot ofJh liquor
businee along respectable lines. .
The circular calls attention to the feet
that the prohibition lata In making their
fight on the liquor traffle direct their
' energies toward a suppression of the
dives snd that it Is the existence of the
dire which has been th cause of'th
greet prohibition wave which haa swept
over the State during the past few years.
The otrcuun- states that th association
doe not pose aa a "reformer" or any-
thing akin; to that but that the suppres-
sion of the dives Is s straightout bualnee
proposition.

The circular Is also addressed to each
and every connty attorney la the State
the following being the language Sued la
part: - .- - T ..
lu sending you this letter do net for a
moment entertain the Idea we wish to nv-
sinuate that you or your officer have
failed or been derelict In duty. Such la not
the intentions. But realising how difficult
it Is for local officers to obtain evidence
sufficient for a successful prosecution we
land ready to aid you whenever yon de-
sir to obtain such evidence If It exists
to assist by sending you able counsel or
give your county flnanolal assistance tat
your endeavor to rid your oomm unity of
objectionable places. If uch there be In
your county. .
In doing thla we are actuated by a de-
lr to at once and for all time show the
public that we as a body or Individually
are not "backing" or countenancing any
man or Arm who are not willing to con-
duct their business In strict conformity
with th statutes. . ..
PROSECUTING OFFICER TALKS.
A Post repreaentatlv called upon As-
sistant County Attorney R. B Lewis who
handle the criminal end of the county
attorney's office and asked that gentle-
man for aa expression concerning the
circular. Captain Lewis stated as fol-
lows: '1 have at all tunas bean ready
and not only willing but anxious to sup-
press the dives sad Joints I am aware
that they are a mensna to' tea mnmunL
ttje nere they exist and I would only
w suui i impoesioie tor
them te exist. I can do nothing without
evutegce and that i have no way of pro-
curing myself. 1 see by this circular that
the- brewers' association propose to as-
sist In securing evidence.- That Is ail that
1 d!r' u tnev T"1 help it will be no
trouble to make It impassible for tae
divee to exist. 1 am convinced that there
are email dlvea and iolnta In th outlying
districts which exist on a beer license
and where whisky Is being sold. These
are th places where the low classes ef
both races congregate and where crime
I hatched. I am in favor of raising the
license so high that 'it would malts It
prohibit! v for the small joints i am
in favor also of the But giving te toe
municipal authorities more contest over
the dlareputabl places. . You can rest
assured that if th liquor men wlU sir
this matter their attention and will help
the prosecuting officers in securing evi-
dence that will stick the day e the Jouu
is n earing the end." .s
A SALOON "MAN TALKS.
The circular has created a great deal
of talk and many men have expressed
themselves upon It On liquor dealer
stated to a Poet reporter that he was
heartily In favor of the move and would.
land hie assistance toward the end bought
by th brewers' association. "I sm in
th saloon business" he stated "not be-
cause 1 hav any particular liking (or It.
In fact I do not suppose l have any
more love for the handling of whisky
than th average man has for cutting
of greasy meats ladellng out kerosene
oil and the like. He is la the business
because he makes a living at it and that
le the rase with me. 1 have-no deslr
to sell liquor to a man who la my opin-
ion haa had enough to drink notwith-
standing the fact that temperance fahat-
Ica avow that that 1 my especial and
fiendish delight. As a rut when a man
f resents himself to me whom I think haa
ad enough to drink' I. refuse him and
have made many enemies because ot
this rule. I have ao defense te make of
th dive and I think that U the dlv and
Joint were obliterated from existence the
great prohibition wave would cease. I do
not blame people for railing a howl about
the dive. It Is the cause of all the crime.
In thoee place minors are allowed to
drink and to enter snd hang around.
They ought to. be obliterated from the
faoe of the earth and there I no us
trying to deny It that unless the liquor
men themselves sweep them from the
face of th earth the prohibitionist will
do It and they will make no distinctions
between the first class saloon and th
dive while they are doing It." . .

And He adds in black type : ' ; '
In connection with this list think of beer which
contains only from two to five per cent of v
alcohol while 'some of these 'bitters contain . c
ten times as much making them stronger than
whisky far stronger than sherry or port with

Mr. Bok continues:

" A mother who would hold tip her haixds in holy ' .
horror at the thought of her child drinking a glass
of beer which contains from two to five per cent of
alcohol gives to that child with her own hands a
patent medicine that contains from seventeen to
forty-four .per cent of alcohol."
Biidweiser contains only 3S per cent of alcohol.
